SDS-PAGE with MALDI-TOF MS Imaging

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was performed with fluorescently labeled BSA-488, and the resulting protein band was identified and imaged using a phone camera, a hand-held UV lamp (model UVGL-58 from UVP, San Gabriel, CA), and a light box. Protein transfer from the gel was performed by electroblotting through a trypsin membrane onto a PVDF capture membrane. The transfer buffer was 19.2 mM glycine and 2.5 mM Tris in 20% methanol, and electrodigestion was performed at 6 V for 3 h. Immediately after quickly imaging the blot, the membrane was coated with DHB matrix using the above method. In preparation for MALDI-TOF MSI, the membrane was affixed to a stainless-steel target using conductive double-sided tape and dried under vacuum. Imaging was performed with a Bruker UltrafleXtreme MALDI mass spectrometer (Billerica, MA) using a laser attenuation of 65%, a Smartbeam parameter set of 2_small, and calibration using Bruker peptide standard II. Gel and membrane fluorescence images were processed using ImageJ software (NIH)29 (link) and compared with the mass spectrometry image. Each image was converted to grayscale, contrast enhanced at 0.5% uniformly across the images, inverted, and cropped to focus on the BSA-488 band.

Aliquots (20 μL) of FCV-infected cell lysate were dropped onto a cover glass (Matsunami Glass Ind., Ltd.) and then subjected to UV-A irradiation as follows. The spots were irradiated with UV-A using a UV transilluminator UVGL-58 (UVP; Upland, CA, USA) for 0–30 min. The distance between the drops and UV transilluminator was maintained at 20 mm. The energy (mJ/cm2) of UV-A was estimated on the basis of color changes to UV indicators (UV label-S) (NiGK Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). The treated FCV-infected cell lysate samples were used for viral titration assays as described above.

The spectrum of reflected and scattered light was measured by an illuminance spectrophotometer (CL-500A; Konica Minolta, Tokyo, Japan) as the irradiance (W·m−2). The total spectrum from 360 to 780 nm was measured, and the PFD for each spectral condition was calculated using the following formula: PFD (μmol·m−2·s−1) = [irradiance (W·m−2) × spectrum (m) × 10−9]/[Planck’s constant (6.626 × 10−34; J·s) × speed of light (2.998 × 108; m·s−1) × Avogadro’s constant (6.022 × 1023; mol−1)] × 106. The PFD results were used to compare PDA plates with and without α-CD and activated carbon. The bottom of each culture plate was irradiated with UV light at 365 nm (UVGL-58, UVP, Upland, CA, USA) in a dark room. The plates for each sample condition were prepared at least in triplicate.

Fabrication of Magnetic Microparticle Arrays

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Once the elastomeric mold was manufactured, the wells of the PDMS were filled with a magnetic suspension. First, a small amount of photoinitiator 2-hydroxy-2-mehtyl-1-phenyl-propan-1one was mixed with ethoxylated trimethylolpropane triacrylate (ETPTA) (10 : 1 w/w ETPTA : photoinitiator, Sigma-Aldrich). The densities of the photoinitiator and ETPTA were 1.077 g mL À1 and 1.11 g mL À1 , respectively. Next, carbonyl iron (CI) particles (density 7.86 g mL À1 , grade EW BASF SE, Germany) at a volume fraction of 50 vol% were mechanically dispersed in the mixture using a centrifugal mixer. Then, the CI suspensions were spread over the PDMS mold with a spoon spatula. Most of the excess suspension was removed by scraping off the surface of the mold with a razor blade. Next, the mold was pressed gently onto a glass slide several times in order to completely clean the excess material. Afterwards, the filled PDMS wells were degassed for 5 minutes and reticulated for 4 hours under a UV-lamp (UVGL-58, UVP, UK) with wavelength of 254 nm and power of 6 Watt. Finally, the mold was rinsed with ethanol and then a stream of air was used to dry the surface.

Fingerprint Detection Using Synthetic Powders

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fingerprints were placed on glass slides after the hands were in gloves for several minutes to make them sweaty. The prints were dried for 5-10 minutes before they were dusted with the synthesised fingerprint powders. Because only a small amount of powder was synthesised, all of the powder was poured over the fingerprint and by tapping against the glass slide the excess powder was removed. The dusted fingerprints were excited using a handheld commercial UV lamp (UVP, model UVGL-58) at 254 nm, due to availability. Since the complex shows absorption between 250-290 nm with a peak at 270 the use of 254 nm still allowed for excitation. The results were recorded in a dark room using a reflex camera (Nikon D3200 with a 105mm Sigma macro lens). Exposure times up to 60 seconds were used to pick up the luminescence of the fingerprint powder. It has to be mentioned that UV light of 254 nm is harmful and has to be handled with care [24] . In addition 254 nm radiation causes damage to any DNA that might be present in the fingerprint [25] and will therefore eliminate the possibility to examine the fingerprints for DNA of the donor.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Filter paper (Whatman, 20 micron) was cut to 0.5×2 cm. Test strips were immersed into a dichloromethane solution containing 4 (2 mM) and dried in air. To detect fluoride in water, the pre-treated Filter paper was immersed into an unbuffered DI water solution (containing 2 mM CTAB) for 5 seconds and dried in air for 10 minutes.
The fluorescence on the Filter paper was observed and recorded under 365 nm using a hand held UV lamp (UVGL-58 from UVP).
For selectivity assays with probe 4 the synthetic aquifer sample was prepared with 2x of the final concentration of NaF in the assay. This sample was then mixed 10 mM acetate (pH = 4.8) containing 2 mM CTAB at a 50:50 (v/v) ratio. The resulting solution was measured directly with test-strips of probe 4 as described in the preceding paragraph.
